Week 5, Post-Execution: Max

[withsadness]

[So now that Sei and Mutsu have sacrificed themselves for the greater good (the greater good being Mary and Akira), she and Max have some business to attend to! It's fine, probably. She'll just be scribbling for some stress relief.]

[ WHY THIS

He kind of stands there awkwardly letting it happen for a second before he pats her on the back a few times. But he doesn't remove her!!! Progress. ]

... Yeah, yeah, don't make such a big fucking deal out of it. I wouldn't have offered the other thing if we weren't, christ.

[withsadness]

[This is the hell that he's chosen to (potentially) live with.]

Okay! I won't! It'll be our secret!

[One final squeeze for good measure and then she lets him go. This is fine. This is gonna be fine!!!]

[concertmaster]

The friend part isn't a secret. ...But yeah, keep the other one to yourself.

[obv...iously... either way once she lets go, he shoves his hands back in his hoodie :/ comfort pose]
